Amharc ar fhreagraI have had no recent contact with the Community Games organisation. As I previously advised the House, the Reception and Integration Agency (RIA) of the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform has confirmed its continuing willingness to facilitate the availability of Mosney to host the Community Games. For as long as the RIA continues to use Mosney, subject to Mosney Irish Holidays plc being willing and in a position to make the venue available for this purpose, the Community Games can avail of the facilities there. A new contract for the use of the Centre was signed between Mosney Irish Holidays Ltd and the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform on 18th November 2004.
